New Nikon 82mm object lens scope (1 Viewer)

Colin said:

Hi,
Has anyone tried out the new Nikon scope. I have wanted to check one out but each time I have visited the local dealer he has sold out. However, last week he had one left and I took a look thru with a zoom lens (to 75x). The scope appeared to be pretty good at middle distance viewing and fantastic at long range(infinity) viewing. I realised the problem was when I was looking thru a glass window. With no glass between the scope and object, it seemed a fantastic scope. Anybody have any experience of this new scope?

Gaga,

Here are some Nikon links that I got from a birding forum. I keep these in my favorites to help with my decision making on a potential digiscoping purchase. The second link has a flow chart that helped me get right the core of the available options from Nikon. I hope this helps.

You'd be better getting the utter bargain Nikon FSII non ED still on sale at Warehouse Express. Now that is a super scope. But for d/s you really need to consider scopes with ED/fluorite glass and that will cost. These give a brighter sharper more contrasty photo. Also a wide objective will let you take shots in less than perfect lighting or at a higher shutter speed. The Zeiss 85, the Swaro 80, the Kowa... all good for d/s!

Nikon Fieldscope EDIII A

Waterproof and fog-free with O-ring seals and nitorogen gas
All lenses and prisms are multilayer coated for the brightest images
Built-in type slide hood
Angled body type for easy viewing and comfortable sketching
Extra-low dispersion (ED) glass for colour aberration compensation and brighter, clearer viewing (EDIII / EDIII A)
Eight different eyepieces compatible (see specifications)


Thanks to Nikon's advanced prism design, with angled body types, you get the same brightness found in straight body types.

Regards

Clive
